50.1 POUNDS LOST~259.9 to 209.8~Lori259

Now, THAT is MY kinda shoppin'!!!! Keep on shoppin' it girl. I neglected myself for so long I have had to really get back into shopping to figure out what looked decent on me and to figure out what the girls were wearing these days. I can tell you are really getting into the shopping thing too--way cute tops and the jewelry and all. The shopping has been fun and it's cheaper than therapy! Plus, I find it motivating each time I go. I found a great pair of black Nike running shorts today and I cannot wait to try them out in the morning.

p.s. The next thing I am going to have done is my HAIR! I need some very subtle color to cover the gray but I am leaving it long--just a nice trim. I am totally digging my longer hair these days as is my husband.

hehehe~I have been getting the jewlry (Most of it ) from Ebay~I am a sucker for Sterling silver Stone jewelry. I actually had a bunch of it before and I always kinda use it for my makeup ~since I do not wear makeup But super rare~like once every few years LOL~I Have always had long hair~ Once I got the bangs grew in I Never wanna cut it~some people say I should But my hubby likes my hair long also. So I am keeping the long~as far as color I haven't seen any gray yet~but sure there is some lurking~i am 33~And I usually dye it every few months~but I am trying to let it go back to it's natural brown~But may dye it again~
I Bought 9 skirts Like I have on in that pic~because they have drawstrings waist and I figured I could wear them for a few sizes at least~And they was just 1.99 UNBELIEVABLE!
I even got a jewelry amoire there for 25.00 new~it's about 3 1/2 feet tall
And Well made so That was Like the deal of the century to me~I love yard sales so I feel like I am at a yard sale in there but with everything being new its 100 times better.

I am Counting calories ~I am on 1400 calories a day.
I lost 13.3 lbs my first month with no exercise but I started walking indoors (Because it was fall/winter when I started Plus I have severe ashtma and indoors seemed overall safer to me) anyways I walked 15 mintues before Each meal~3 Times a day Then Upped it a little every few weeks or so.
I now walk 45 mintues 2 Times a day everyday. (I am at a low calorie number But people can still lose weight and eat higher calories~a good website to use there calorie counting calculators on the left hand side of home page is www.freedieting.com) GOODLUCK
